Cu...I have a mom body even though i dont have kids. Curvy in the middle but looks “skinny” when hidden in clothes. Few things that helped me would be 1. drinking warm (as warm as you can take) water first thing after waking up and last before bed. Helps in digestion and burping out the extra air inside. 2. Eating meals at the right time and last meal before 8pm. This really helps even without exercise. 3. My only form of exercise in the past would be climbing stairs. I take stairs when in mrt station and overhead bridges so in my daily routine going to work, i would have done a few floors. Guess u can try these if u haven’t already!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34883330.post-12303262652548606802020-05-25T21:28:07.172+08:002020-05-25T21:28:07.172+08:00Mag, are u planning to have another child?
My #1...Mag, are u planning to have another child? <br /><br />My #1 scar keloid. And with #2 repeat csection I told the doctor to help cut the keloid and use steroid jab when stitching up. Only then it didn’t keloid anymore.<br /><br />There are steroid jabs u can do now on the scar too but I am not sure how effective. It’s supposed to flatten the keloid. Maybe try googling Holly Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05204601039672791434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34883330.post-23607396030157152642020-05-25T19:45:36.406+08:002020-05-25T19:45:36.406+08:00Thanks for sharing your scar healing pic.

At the same time reduced carb to half a palm size. Ate these food groups for every meal. Took fruits as usual but limit to crunchy and less sweet type of fruits. I hope it helps you.

But the skin is def not as smooth and taut as it was before. <br /><br />We are stopping at 2. That’s the plan for now (I really don’t think I can go through another pregnancy and then take care of 3 kids close in age... I will really lose myself.<br />Holly Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05204601039672791434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34883330.post-53469030914655089142020-05-24T17:36:10.978+08:002020-05-24T17:36:10.978+08:00Holly what did you do to get rid of the saggy skin...Holly what did you do to get rid of the saggy skin around the stomach area? ur stomach still looks quite good leh, if you get back to your old weight or even shed off a bit confirm can still look like model one. You still look damn good!!No cellulite like me, and I&#39;m so much younger... Any plans for more kids? what would you do if you fell pregnant! hahahaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34883330.post-34785248850005717852020-05-23T12:06:03.927+08:002020-05-23T12:06:03.927+08:00If it’s of any help at all, cut back on the carbo....If it’s of any help at all, cut back on the carbo. I’ve heard your rice/noodles for each meal should not exceed the size of your fist. Also, I do 10mins stay home cardio workouts (just look for some on youtube). Only 10mins, but at least it gets my heart pumping, gets me sweating, and I don’t have to leave home (esp with the current pandemic going on). And I only do that 10min cardio work out once a week. I believe in sustainability. No point being super enthusiastic about it and doing it everyday, only to end up getting fatigue and giving up altogether. Some exercise is better than none at all.<br /><br />The above pointers don’t help me lose a huge amount of weight but it does help a little and I feel something is better than nothing.<br /><br />I used to go on extreme dieting (starving myself AND exercising) and was around 43-44kg. It took a toll on my health. I began suffering from gastric. At one point it got me worrying whether I got stomach cancer. Now, thinking back, I felt so silly and selfish. I should have thought more for my family. So now, I’m back to eating my 3 meals (small carbo amounts - not zero carbo because you’ll get very lethargic as a result of lack of sugar), and doing a 10min work out a week. I’m now 47-48kg (goes up and down).<br /><br />I still treat myself to some desserts (cake) once a month. It pushes my weight up a little, but goes back down if I stay off for the rest of the month.<br /><br />So this is how I maintain/lose some weight. Like you, I get too tired at the end of the day to workout alot like other people do. I think this 10min thing will work v well for you.<br /><br />I’m 39.<br /><br />Hope this helps, somehow.Hederahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09259690457781232853noreply@blogger.com
